True crime-obsessed Paisley James is devastated when her quarterback boyfriend breaks up with her. The only logical thing to do: distract herself by digging up dirt on the criminal cartel residing in her hometown: the Rayas. It's not long before Paisley finds herself wrapped up in their history, and she's closer to it than she ever thought imaginable. When a love story blooms in the middle of it, it's not just her heart that's on the line anymore.

Drugs, Treasons and Other Demons by HappyCoati

WATTYS 2023 SHORTLIST Sarah Kennedy's life has fallen to pieces. Her family is broken, she's growing apart from her only friend, and it's been a while since she's stopped dreaming about anything better. She embarks on a trip to Latin America, joining a retreat she hopes will mend her dwindling friendship and escape her miserable day-to-day life. Bad turns to worse, and her hopes are shattered when she is kidnapped by a cartel. While her life is miraculously spared, she's kept captive by a daunting and narcissistic drug lord, Pablo. As his obsession with her grows, so do his favors and promises. Sarah soon finds herself in a gilded cage, living a life more lavish than anything she's ever imagined. But all that glitters isn't gold, and this luxury has a price. If Sarah wants to escape the violent, treacherous, and cocaine-fueled world of cartels, she'll have to fight the demons that keep her captive, as well as the monsters in her head, armed with nothing but a dry sense of humor and a fragile strength. But as she and Pablo both know- it's a long journey home when you don't have any home to go to. _____________________ DTOD is marked as mature for strong language, drug use, violence (and also dark humor) and the occasional steam/smut. Trigger warnings are included before sensitive or explicit scenes. _____________________ "Drugs, Treasons and Other Demons, a niche erotica for people who like men who keep their socks on." "A book that will make you cry whenever you hear a Pitbull song." "By the time I finished reading this whole book, I could have read the entire Hunger Games saga. But I would have had a lot less fun." "I went to read a few chapters of this book one night, and all of a sudden a whole weekend went by on me."

The Girl They Never Noticed by The_Outkast

✨COMPLETED✨ I took a few steps before I stopped to face him again. "Jay?" I said, barely above a whisper. "Hmm?" "I love you. You know that right?" I asked, kind of unsure. "of course. Of course I do." He said, scrunching his eyebrows as if he doesn't understand why I would randomly say that. "I love you very much." I repeated, every bone in my body aching from this pain, this betrayal. What I'm doing, or going to do, is definitely some form of betrayal. But I don't have a choice, right? He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story.

Knife's Edge by TinyZebraThing

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor has been dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters, Charlotte and Bailey, who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. Her father finally got caught when she was seven and for a fleeting, white-hot second, it seemed that things were going to be okay. She should've known better. She should've known that her mother would jump ship, choose the drugs and not the daughter. Suddenly left abandoned, navigating the murky waters of life in care, it took a little while longer for Jade to find her place in the world. Now, finally, she has. At the age of eighteen, Jade is counting down the days before her exams are over, excited to spend the summer with her two best friends and boyfriend. Unfortunately, things don't always go according to plan... not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman's - a family that fits so perfectly into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid - Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. The question is... which way will she fall? (This description is a work in progress and may be subject to change!)

𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐘 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐒 by marelizxx

𝐑𝐀𝐘𝐍𝐄 𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐑 is your average do-good lawyer on the rise to fame as a representative of young victims. Except her motivations aren't all that innocent. Rayne's only goal is to run from her past, to leave confrontation for the courtroom, no matter who or what that hurts. The task once easy soon becomes hard when an unlikely ally shows up with the truth about her twin brother. 𝐑𝐔𝐄𝐁𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐒 is the Spanish mafia heir, at least, in name. Four years ago, he sat helplessly as his younger sister was snatched from his front lawn, and again when his best friend was taken months later. Up until now, he's been searching on his own. But there are new players involved; new distractions. The time for waiting is over: he needs an ally. Each fighting for a different reason, each holding onto closeted history, will the alliance prove to be worth it in the end? Or will all of their fears metastasize into something greater? 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐓 is a classic jokester, hiding his personality and altruism behind false excitement and distracted ironies. With a broken child living inside of him, he finds life easier to manage so long as he keeps up appearances by entertaining a semi-toxic relationship with Blake Ruiz. Happiness is a virtue he can afford to scorn, that is, until everything he's ever craved steals his mind with dark blue Converse and black nail polish. 𝐊𝐀𝐈 𝐀𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐑È𝐙, apathetic at best, shields his vulnerability with pride, ego, and a few too many Jack and Cokes. Men constantly fall into his trap, but when Mason makes the same mistake, things suddenly change. Traumatized from childhood, jeered by a complex he can't seem to quit, he clings to this new person. Steered by unhealed wounds, they find themselves wrapped in one another. Whoever said you needed water to drown when love is hastily included? ⤷ MULTIPLE MCS COVER: _NAVYBLUEEE_
